Ezekiel 10

1 Then looked I and lo! in the expanse which was over the head of the cherubim as a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne, appeared over them.

Then I looked, and lo, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubs there appeared over them as it were a sapphire-stone, in form like a throne;

2 Then said he unto the man clothed in linen—then said he Go in between the whirling wheels, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with live coals of fire from between the cherubim, and throw over the city. So he went in before mine eyes.

and He spake to the man that was clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels under the cherub, and fill thy hands with coals of fire, which are between the cherubs, and scatter them over the city. And he went in before my eyes.

3 Now the cherubim were standing on the right side of the house when the man went in, —and, the, cloud filled the inner court,

Now the cherubs stood upon the right side of the house when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.

4 Then arose the glory of Yahweh from off the cherub, unto the threshold of the house, —and the house was filled with the cloud, and the, court, was filled with the brightness of the glory of Yahweh.

And the glory of Jehovah was lifted up from the cherub to the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of Jehovah.

5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard, as far as the outer court, —like the voice of the Almighty GOD when he speaketh,

And the sound of the wings of the cherubs was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God, the Almighty, when he speaketh.

6 So then it came to pass— when he commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim, then went he in and stood beside the wheel.

And when he commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubs, he went in and stood beside the wheels.

7 And the cherub put forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took up thereof and gave into the hands of him who was clothed with linen, —who took [it] and went forth,

And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubs to the fire that was between the cherubs, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen, who took it, and went out.

8 Now the cherubim appeared to have. the likeness of the hand of a man, under their wings.

And there was seen in the cherubs the form of a man's hand under their wings.

9 Then looked I. and lo! four wheels by the cherubim—one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub, —and the appearance of the wheels was to look upon like a Tarshish stone;

And when I looked, behold, four wheels were by the cherubs, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub; and the appearance of the wheels was like that of a chrysolite.

10 and as for their appearance, one likeness, had they four, -as might be a wheel in the midst of a wheel.

And as to their appearance, all four had one form, as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel.

11 When they went, upon their four sides, they went, they turned not when they went, for to the place whithersoever the head turned, after it, they went, they turned not when they went.

When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not about when they went; but to the place whither the head looked they followed it, they turned not about when they went.

12 And all their flesh, and their back, and their hands and their wings, and the wheels were full of eyes round about, even their wheels which they four had

And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about, even the wheels which they four had.

13 To the wheels—to them, was made the cry— O whirling wheel! in mine ears.

And as to these wheels, each one of them in my hearing was called Whirlwind.

14 And four faces had each one, —the first face, was the face of a cherub, and, the second face, was the face of a man and the third was the face of a lion. and the fourth, was the face of an eagle.

And every one had four faces. The first face was the face of a cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.

15 Then arose the cherubim, —the same, was the living one, which I had seen by the river Chebar.

And the cherubs were lifted up. They were the living creatures which I saw by the river Chebar.

16 When the cherubim went, then went the wheels beside them, —and when the cherubim lifted up their wings, to arise from off the earth, the wheels themselves turned not from beside them;

And when the cherubs went, the wheels went with them; and when the cherubs lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the wheels turned not away from their side.

17 when they stood, these stood, and when they arose, these arose with them, —for, the spirit of the living one, was in them.

When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these were liked up with them. For the spirit of the living creatures was in them.

18 And when the glory of Yahweh went forth from off the threshold of the house, —and stood over the cherubim,

Then the glory of Jehovah departed from the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubs.

19 then the cherubim uplifted their wings and arose from the earth before mine eyes as they went forth, the wheels also in unison with them, —and it stood at the opening of the gate of the house of Yahweh that was toward the east, with the glory of the God of Israel over them, above.

And the cherubs lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight, as they went out, and the wheels were beside them. And they stood at the entrance of the east gate of the house of Jehovah, and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.

20 The same, was the living one which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar, - then knew I that cherubim, they were.

They were the living creatures which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were the cherubs.

21 Four faces severally, had each one, and four wings, had each one, —and the likeness of the hands of a man, was under their wings.

Every one had four faces, and every one four wings, and the form of a man's hand was under their wings.

22 And as for the likeness of their faces, They were the faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves— every one straight before him, did they go.

And as for the form of their faces, they were the faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves. They went every one straight forward.
